《Destiny Rewritten》Chapter 79

"Okay, what's so urgent that you called me to come here?" Oliver asked as he entered his fiance's office and still trying to comprehend that in another reality, had once been his office.

"A cop killer." Laurel said and that got Oliver's attention.

"What's going on?" Oliver, praying that this wasn't what he thought it was.

"I was talking to my dad about the ACI earlier today when he got a call in about a homicide. I used my new security clearance as the mayor to get more information." Laurel said.

"Who was it?" Oliver asked.

"Officer Sam Conahan. He's one of the few cops I'd already cleared to join the ACU. But the thing that got my attention was the murder weapon. It was a throwing star Ollie." Laurel said and Oliver groaned.

"Okay, here's what we'll do. You tell Captain Pike to keep you looped in on this investigation, since it sounds like this killer is a major problem for this city, so it makes sense that you want to be involved in this. In the meantime, I will have Sara check with both the League and Argus to see if they have any ideas on who this killer is." Oliver said, though he was planning on seeing if this was what he dreaded it was.

"Winn, I need you to check on something for me?" Oliver asked as he entered the lair, which was sort of where it felt like Winn lived nowadays.

"What's up?" Winn asked.

"I need to check in on an Adrian Chase." Oliver said.

"Okay, any reason why or is this one of those things where I shouldn't ask and just do what you say?" Winn asked.

"Second one. If you don't find any records of him, try Simon Morrison." Oliver said.

"Okay then." Winn said as he pulled up the records.

"Okay, yep, here we go. Adrian Chase, formerly known as Simon Morrison. It says here that he is the illegitimate son of Justin Clayborne, who I believe is currently in Iron Heights thanks to you, but anyways, Chase grew up in Gotham and a few years ago he was put in the Arkham Asylum for the Criminally Insane after number of skirmishes with Batman, who, thanks to Sara, we now know is real." Winn said as he showed Oliver Chase's file.

"It says here he was committed with insanity for a life." Oliver said.

"Yep." Winn said.

"Well can you do me a favor and make sure that's exactly what he's doing right now?" Oliver asked.

"Yeah sure." Winn said as he began typing and after a few moments, he'd hacked into Arkham's security footage to reveal that Chase was still locked up in his cell.

"Okay, thank you Winn." Oliver said, both relieved that this wasn't Chase and that Chase was already in custody, but also frustrated, since for the first time since the reality shift, he knew nothing about their new opponent. Merlyn, Slade, Church, Darhk, them he all knew and was able to use his past knowledge to help give him an edge against them. This new opponent however, he had no idea where to even begin start looking, which meant that for the first time in awhile, he was truly back to square one.

Laurel was surprised when she came home to find Oliver wasn't anywhere to be found, something that was rare nowadays, especially since she knew he was working to get his license to be a private investigator, so now she was wondering where he was.

When she tried calling him, she was only half surprised to reach his voicemail.

The next person she called was Winn.

"Hey Winn, is Oliver's suit still in the lair?" Laurel asked.

"No, I thought you knew he was on patrol." Winn said.

"No, I didn't. I need to track his suit's GPS, I'm on my way there now." Laurel said, wondering what the hell was going on with Oliver right now.
